Suicide rates for specific mental illnesses/combinations

[nightshade00]

I know I've seen these statistics before. It might have been in the DSM 5. It was a list of different mental illnesses and the rate of suicide for each. Then it listed the suicide rates for people with specific combinations of conditions (which were significantly higher than those with just one).

Does anyone know where to find this info? I'll do more searching for it tonight. I have a copy of the DSM 5 I can look through.

I looked through the DSM 5 and found the following info (there might be more that I missed). Not quite was I was looking for, but it's interesting nonetheless.

Diagnosis	Suicide Attempt Risk	Suicide Success Risk
Schizophrenia	20%	5-6%
Bipolar I Disorder	36%	"at least 15 times that of the general population"
Bipolar II Disorder	32%	not specified
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder	"up to one-quarter of individuals with OCD"	not specified
Dissociative Identity Disorder	70%	not specified

I also found this information from the Maine DHHS. "SMR" is basically how much higher the suicide rate is compared to the general population (e.g. those with Major Depression are 20 times more likely to die from suicide than the average person).

Oh. Wow.

i have Diagnosed OCD and Bipolar II so my risk of attempt is even higher, not to mention my other man6 diagnoses.

I also have multiple diagnoses, which is why I was specifically interested in finding studies that give rates for specific combinations.

I pretty much have all of those. It's shocking. I'm surprised autism isn't there.

These are some frightening numbers. I'll look through pubmed on my way to work today, need to sleep now.

That would be interesting to know. I was also wondering if ADHD has a higher suicide rate than average.

That would be interesting to know. I was also wondering if ADHD has a higher suicide rate than average.

I always had the thoughts, but when I found out I was on the spectrum, in my early 20s, the thoughts intensified. I gave up on life at that point.

Me with DID, OCD (which my only attempt was to escape), BPD, EDNOS, and a panic disorder:
